If you don't see Schedule a meeting, your account isn’t set up to host meetings. You can schedule a meeting from a space instead.

If you're using Microsoft Outlook to schedule meetings, you schedule a Personal Room meeting. Webex App opens a new Outlook invite with all the meeting details. All you need to do is add the people you need to invite, select the date and time, and send the invite.

If you're using Google Calendar to schedule meetings, you schedule a Personal Room meeting. Webex App opens a Google calender invite in a new tab in your default browser. All you need to do is add the people you need to invite, select the date and time, and send the invite.

If you're using the Webex App app scheduler to schedule meetings, edit the name of the meeting in Topic, and select the Date and Time for your meeting.

Choose whether you want to schedule a one-time meeting link or use your Personal Room. If you choose a one-time meeting link, change the password, if you want.
